Chapter 163: Please Stay, All Three

Meanwhile, on the street.

"Brother Su Lang!"

Ji Ruxue asked, a little confused, "Where are we going now?"

"First, let's find a place to stay."

Su Lang smiled faintly, "In a few hours, my cultivation will break through.

By the way, your and Grandma Ke's cultivation shouldn't fall behind. Take these pills and consume them."

Saying that, Su Lang took out dozens of freshly refined Grand Profound Spirit Fusion Overlord Pills from his storage space and handed them to Ji Ruxue.

"Mm-hm! Brother Su Lang is so kind!"

Ji Ruxue took the pills with a sweet smile, then shared some with Grandma Ke.

"Thank you for the generosity, Sir Su Lang!"

Grandma Ke bowed respectfully to Su Lang before taking the pills Ji Ruxue handed her.

"Alright, let's go."

Su Lang turned and walked forward, a slight hint of excitement on his lips.

In a few hours, he would break through to peak Martial Master. He was really looking forward to it!

And just then.

Jing Qianyi and the others, who were about to approach them, saw this scene and their eyes widened instantly!

"Perfect-grade tenth-order pills!"

"Oh my god, dozens of them, all perfect-grade!"

"Xu Zhifei was right, this mysterious alchemist definitely has a secret!"

"I wonder what method he uses to refine so many perfect pills. We must get it!"

"……"

Jing Qianyi and the others exchanged glances, their hearts churning with turbulent waves!

Immediately.

"Three sirs, please wait!"

Jing Qianyi quickly caught up behind Su Lang and the two women, calling out with a friendly expression.

"Heh, so they're here?"

A noncommittal smile played on Su Lang's lips.

He had felt someone watching him earlier, and sure enough, they had come looking for him.

Then, he, Ji Ruxue, and Grandma Ke slowly turned around and clearly saw the appearance of the other party.

Su Lang naturally didn't recognize Jing Qianyi.

However, Ji Ruxue and Grandma Ke, who were born and raised in Eastern City, would not fail to recognize him.

"Master Jing Qianyi!?"

Grandma Ke let out a surprised gasp.

At this gasp, the surrounding passersby all turned their attention to them.

Immediately, there was an uproar!

"It's really Master Jing Qianyi!"

"The only Pill King realm alchemist in our Eastern City!"

"I took a pill personally refined by Pill King Jing during the last beast tide battle!"

"I did too! It's so lucky that we have Pill King Jing in our Eastern City!"

"Who isn't saying that? But what's the background of those people the Pill King called out to? They all look so mysterious!"

"To be able to interact with Lord Pill King, they must not be ordinary people either."

"……"

The passersby whispered among themselves, discussing animatedly.

Their gazes towards Jing Qianyi were filled with admiration and respect!

At the same time.

"Oh!"

"I didn't expect you to know me? What an honor!"

Jing Qianyi and the alchemists behind him were all a little surprised.

Because according to their speculation, Su Lang and the others should be from other city outposts.

Otherwise, with his peculiar alchemy, it would be impossible for him to only be showing up now.

"Pill King Jing Qianyi?"

Su Lang smiled noncommittally, "I wonder what business you have with us?"

"Hahahahaha!"

Jing Qianyi laughed heartily and said, "Young friend, I just learned about you from Murong Xianxian, so I hurried to catch up!

Hmm… there are a lot of people here, why don't we find a different place to talk?"

Upon hearing this, Su Lang showed a slight smile, but in his heart, he sneered repeatedly.

He had previously told Murong Xianxian words like 'treated as honored guests, but only at Quiet Heart Pill Pavilion.'

And Murong Xianxian had understood his hint.

She and Elder Li would certainly not turn around and reveal his whereabouts.

And Jing Qianyi's address was 'young friend,' he didn't know Su Lang's real name!

This also corroborated that Jing Qianyi absolutely did not learn about Su Lang from Quiet Heart Pill Pavilion.

Excluding Quiet Heart Pill Pavilion, where else could Jing Qianyi have gotten news of Su Lang?

Of course, from Xu Zhifei!

To know the news from Xu Zhifei, it must have been Xu Zhifei who actively reported it.

That means Jing Qianyi is Xu Zhifei's superior!

Having analyzed this far, Su Lang already roughly knew Jing Qianyi's purpose—

—nothing more than coveting his alchemy secrets.

"Hmph, hmph, sounds like he's famous and brilliant."

"But secretly dares to covet others' secrets!?"

"What a hypocrite, a sanctimonious fellow!"

A barely noticeable cold sneer flashed in Su Lang's eyes: "I want to see how much wealth a Pill King possesses!?"
